ah need to change my mindset la like this since my last console are Xbox 360s (Pro & Elite), planning to get a PS5 but always out of stock / scalpers sell at high price, I think Xbox Series S + game pass suits me better because rarely play games in this recent years.

Actually if you don't want to fork out the one time cost of stacking game pass, you could just get the 14 Days game pass code on Shopee. Although the prices have risen these few months, it only cost RM12.

Bro did you play the beta? What are your thoughts on the game? I'm a BF fan, but the beta left me wondering if this is gonna be another Battlefield 4 situation...

Good thing that GPU owners get a 10 hour trial of the game. Hopefully it'll be good enough to warrant a purchase.

Only played like 2 days of the beta on Xbox and an hour on PC, despite the minimal / non existing aim assist I perform better playing on XSX since it have been awhile since I play fps on M&KB. While I agree with most points made in the multiple YT videos about the state of the beta, I had fun playing during the first two days. Those things doesn't really bother me during my blind playthrough besides the numbers of bots in non crossplay server due to the lack of player. I just wish that I could save the attachment loadout during beta, it's damn annoying to have to pick attachment every time you respawn. The only concern that I have for launch would be the lack of variety regarding operators model/outfit.

I would probably only play rush or TDM as I dislike using vehicle. tongue.gif I know, why bother playing BF if you don't like vehicle. I missed playing Operation Metro and just constantly throwing myself towards the action. I choose to main BF 2042 over Vanguard as I believe it have longevity, no official M&KB support and the ability to exclude playing with PC players while still able to play with PS5 players. It have been a struggle resisting to preorder Vanguard, only RM330 for ultimate edition but decided not to after one of the special offer to get extra skin for preorder expired on the 2nd. I was reminded of the some of the bullshit scorestreaks and the wacked spawn system as I still play Cold War pretty often.

Managed to preorder BF Ultimate yesterday for 92.78 USD on Chile store and bought physical copy of PS5 Vanguard. Shame that there's are no VRR on PS5 and I prefer Xbox controller, but then I could resell the disc after a month biggrin.gif

Decided to dive back into Outriders with the new DLC release all of a sudden, hope I don't regret it. Good thing is that it has cross progression with PC (Microsoft store version).

Went with base game + DLC version for RM129.38 (472.20 TRL) instead of just DLC as the base game might leave game pass later and the difference is only about RM30.

Thanks for this guide. So if buying overseas account, do i need to always in vpn when downloading/playing games?
Good info. Was browsing in shopee n found a lot of sellers selling accounts. So means safest way is to find seller that provide a code directly?

Best and safest way is to get a card like BigPay or Wise that allows you to subscribe directly, but then I heard a lot of people are having issues checking out. These cards don't have registered address so it would work with any address you entered including Turkey which have the lowest (excluding new customer discount) monthly GPU price. All you have to do is switch region on your Xbox and put in a random address you found online.

Too bad you can't gift Game Pass sub like you could for games Sometimes when my game purchases don't go through on my main account, I just send it as gift from my alt account. You would want to keep an eye out for regional pricing for games that aren't on game pass, the difference is really huge even for new AAA games.

I had a scare just now when my XSX kept asking me to update to play online then the update process kept getting stuck at 3%, tried various solutions for an hour to no avail.

When the offline system update kept failing, I thought I need to send the console for repair. Then I remember I am on different version as I am subscribed to the insider program, but the offline update file for preview build isn't available for download.

Luckily there's a workaround, I can use Xbox Insider Hub app on PC and unenrolling the console. Wait few mins and restart the console then it let me update back to normal build, I only lost my user profile along with the display settings.

Can u disable the insider program?

Yep, you could do it on the console itself, another console with the console app, phone app and window store app.

Just beware that changing between insider preview and normal build usually resets all the user settings, you would have to sign in again and customize all your setting again. Luckily all your downloaded games would still be there.

If you want to play around with beta or alpha builds, then you better backup your settings to external storage first then use the transfer setting option after you updated.
